IOWA GET-TOGETHER:
When: 15 July @ 1100 Where: Controlled Chaos Arms in Baxter, IA (for those who have never attended previous events) Food: Potluck *** yammerschooner...pulled pork butt *** fatdrunkandstupid...crock-pot (2?) of beans *** bionicsniper...ultimate chocolate cakes *** CatfishHunter...smoked chicken & some chips *** SamW...assorted desserts *** hurtback...pan or two of mac and cheese *** hondajohn...? *** Nemolicious...unable to attend so we'll catch you next time Nemo *** Inspector2211...meatballs *** U-P-G-R-A-Y-E-D-D...paper plates, napkins & plastic utensils *** Compass...bacon-wrapped little smokies *** DeltaGunner7994...two pans of four-layer chocolate desert *** Kalahnikid...cooler full of ice *** Countryboycarter87...beverages *** timthemedic...beverages and chips *** booger-hooker...spring salad and macaroni salad I know a few of you have spoke earlier about what you may be able to bring as far as food but if this date and time works for you to attend please post in this thread what you will be able to bring and I'll update it as people post so we don't have 20 bags of chips and 10 crockpots of baked beans. Once again there will be casual plinking going on so don't be afraid to bring something new to try out or your old reliable standby guns you always plink with. At this time there will be no organized/sponsored shooting competitions at this event as it's meant for everyone to come and just relax with old friends and meeting new ones. I know I have stuff I need to start clearing out of the booger bunker so I'll have some stuff there for sale and probably various gun magazines to just give away. Do not post on this thread what you might be bringing or any prices...it'll just be an incentive for people to show up and be surprised at what they see (or don't see if nobody brings anything) Once again thanks to Michael at CCA and his family for hosting this event at their place. |

First off. Thanks Michael and CCA for providing a place to shoot, eat and have a good time meeting some new people.
Thanks Booger Hooker for getting a date set. I think I don't have anything going on that day! It's a very busy July schedule wise for me so I hope I can make it. I'll post what food I'll bring as it gets closer. |
|
Im in. And I also thank everyone who made this possible.
Can I be the first to say I am bringing a crock-pot of beans? |
|
|
I plan to come and bring some smoked chicken & some chips. Sounds like a good time and we have been over due for a get together. Thanks Michael for hosting.
|
|
Thanks Michael, CCA & everyone who worked to make this happen. I'll bring some steel targets. I'm still thinking on what food to bring.

Damn, I've already got my Saturday off in July scheduled for the Xfinity race in Newton. I'll see if I can get a second Saturday off.
|
|
|
I would love to attend, but the wife and I are expecting our first little gun slinger at the end of June. Maybe next time
|
|
I've got it on the calendar. The fiance likes to bake, so count me in for assorted desserts most likely. (Plus they're easy to eat in the truck on the way there).
Have room for a few more if anyone wants to carpool from CR/IC area. |
|
Barring any major issues I should be able to make it that day. I can bring a pan or two of mac and cheese (not the blue box stuff).
|
|
Ive been an Iowa resident for about 30 hours now so...tag. (Although undocumented, still dont have my license changed)
Would be great to meet some of you guys |
|
I'm hopefully in on this. Update on food will have to be later.
|
|
I think I may be able to make this one. Ill have to check my work schedule on Monday but will know for sure Monday Night.
Let me know what's left to bring? |
|
I recently moved back to Iowa after a looooong absence and since I am just down the road a short piece, I'm planning stopping by for a bit.
|
|
I will bring some paper plates, napkins, and plastic forks/spoons for everyone to use.
|
|
You guys don't want me to cook, well except for steaks...that said; I'll have ten tickets for a very special event that I'll be giving away, only if you promise to attend on July 22, between 3-7pm in the Des Moines area. I will have some for sale also, after the first ten are given away.
|
|
The real question would be.... who doesn't
And whoever raises their hand.... GET 'EM! |
|
|
|
Almost forgot, I am bringing two pans of a four layer chocolate desert.

Septic,
I know you've got a bunch of steel, but need/want any more? I've got a homemade Texas-star that (usually) works and a dueling tree (Pistol/PCC only preferably) I can bring along. I also have rimfire paddles for the dueling tree. Got some gongs, but I figure you've got that covered. Target stands/targets? |
|
Two members here thinking about coming over. Not sure what we could bring fun wise.
It looks like so far nobody has mentioned bringing beverages? What would be wanted? A bunch of 12 pack sodas or.....???? |

|
I'm not going to be able to make it. Co-worker drama and family stuff. You win some, you lose some I guess. Maybe next time.
|
|
I'll be there - I don't see that anyone is bringing pop and chips - I'll bring that. If anyone has a nice big ass cooler, I'd appreciate that. Ours isn't big enough to handle a couple cases.
ETA: I'll bring some steel too. |
|
this is shaping up folks. i like it.
thank you guys for organizing all this stuff. it helps a ton. dave has been here for two days cleaning up the shop, so you'll have to give strongarm some hugs for all his work. |
|
I'll be there +1 mini gunner. He's been itching for some trigger time and could use some intellectual conversation.
|
|
|
HEY? one last quick thing guys, that'd really make my day.
are there any of you that plan on staying until the shooting is over that could bring a few big tarps? in the past we've laid down tarps and the flying shells. can anyone help out with that? that way we just lift them up and we're done in seconds. |
|
i'm foing
I think I'll bring the magic 3-gun AR if people want to shoot it. Buddy is bringing his spanish trash pile (CETME) and his CZ Tac Sport. |
|
Strongarm has been there for two days and he didn't call...there's going to be hell to pay!
I'll be heading over early tomorrow morning (not before 0800 ) to help with anything else that needs it...or I'll just chill. |
|
I just saw this on Iowa Sportsman. Wish I'd seen it sooner but my wife has got me committed to something else. Sounds like a good size group Michael maybe another time. Sounds fun. Oldbear.

Well..... looks like you can bring the sodas... Unfortunately it looks like I am going to have to cancel as I have some family stuff that needs some attention. Dang I was excited for my first IHTF get together. Hope I can make the next one! Have fun guys!
|
|
good ol' booger...
"Yeah, I'll be there at 8am sharp..." it's 9:45 kevin... somebody needs an alarm clock apparently... |
|
We're loaded up. Got a couple small stops to make then we'll be there. |
|
Thanks a lot everyone. It was nice to see familiar faces, and it was nice to meet the new ones.
Hopefully I can keep names and screen names somewhat straight And definitely a big thank you to Septic. You're a good man, thanks for having us out. |
